I'm writing this to bring in to focus this event, and planning for it.

It's now January 19th...the event is 5 months away, which to some may seem quite a ways, but in reality is very short, especially from an organizers point of view. To date I have 11 people "registered" for the event. What that means is only 11 people have actually either put a deposit down or paid for their tickets in full. We are only 6 weeks away from the registration dead line, and that is a hard date. I have to make a non-refundable deposit on the computer rentals during the beginning of March, so by Feb. 28th I need to have a hard number of people that are planning on being there.

So, the long and short of it is this, if I can't get a significant amount of people registering ASAP for this event, I'm going to have to shelve the whole thing. I simply can't push on not knowing what sort of turn out there is going to be. I know a lot of you have expressed an interest, and many have said you will be there. I need you to step up and make a firm commitment to that now, please. What that entails is simply a 50% deposit on your ticket price, which all the details are listed on this page - http://www.hist-sdc.com/con/cost.html - the balance will be due one month prior to the event. And if you look at it this way, you can get the ticket cost out of the way now, so that's one less thing to worry about when the time comes.

We've got a plan worked out for food to keep the cost very low, if you wish to go with it. The Hotels I have talked to allow double occupancy, so lodging costs can be kept down as well. And if I proceed with the number of computers I originally aimed for there will be a ton of available gaming time for everyone. Like at least 6 hours a day, maybe more.

I personally think this will be a ton of fun. I've arranged to have some really special things happen, and be available to the people who attend. So, the ball is now in your court...If you can't attend for any reason, I can perfectly understand, but if you can, and you plan on it, please take action now!

I've tried to remove the few addresses from people who have contacted me saying they can't make it, so sorry if you get this and you already said something...please reply and I'll get your address of the list for good.
